Preferential Interfacial Engineering of Hydrogels via Interdigitated Nanoparticle Assembly

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Robust surface functionalization of hydrogel surfaces is performed via interdigitated metal nanoparticle assembly, inducing strong affinity with the hydrogel matrix. The partially exposed nanoparticle domains act as interfacial nanobridges that mediate both chemical and physical bonding with diverse materials, including small molecules, fluorous ...

Simulation of Cost Driven Value Stream Mapping

International Journal of Simulation Modelling, 2020
Value stream mapping (VSM) is based on an analysis of the times required to carry out production processes throughout the customer-manufacturer-supplier logistics chain. The goal of VSM is to identify wastes and eliminate them, thereby increasing the added value of a product.
